Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was spotless with a brilliant view but had noisy plumbing controlled by other guests' activities. The hotel's location was great for exploring the area, but the lack of ventilation left a lingering stale smell in the room.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and had all the necessary facilities, but they felt a bit cramped, especially in the 'Coach house. ' Some cleaning issues were noticed behind the bathroom door. The service was a rollercoaster; some staff members were very kind and accommodating, while others seemed rude and unenthusiastic. The location, however, was perfect for my plans as it provided easy access to Snowdon and the surrounding areas. The dining options had a good variety, but the quality was inconsistent. Overall, a decent stay with a good location and adequate amenities.
The hotel offered a clean and warm room with a good view that had all we needed, but some renovation is necessary. The location was perfect for climbing Snowdon, just over the road from the Snowdon Mountain Railway. The dining was excellent with freshly cooked meals, though limited continental options. The staff was attentive and pleasant, taking care of our needs promptly. A comfortable stay with a few areas needing improvement.
I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. On the positive side, the location is excellent for those looking to climb Snowdon, with friendly and efficient service. However, the noise from the lift area was bothersome, the room felt basic, and the dining options were somewhat lacking.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms exceeded my expectations, being spacious and well-equipped, although the heating took a while to warm up. The service was very helpful despite being a bit overworked at times. The location was superb, close to popular attractions, and the dining experience was quite nice. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay comfortable and enjoyable.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were really nice but not in the best location, directly above reception and at the entrance to a corridor. The need for a coat of paint was noticeable, and the room felt very hot and airless due to the window not opening wide enough.
Staying at the hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms were spacious and comfy, perfect for relaxing. The service was top-notch with incredibly friendly and helpful staff. The location couldn't have been better for adventure seekers. Sadly, the dining experience fell short in catering to the crowd, but the facilities were impressive.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The Annexe rooms were much better, offering reasonable size, cleanliness, and quiet, while the main building rooms were just okay, a little dirty, and required asking for clean cups. The outside view from my room overlooked the parking lot and trash area, not the scenic view we were hoping for.
My stay at the hotel was incredible! The location couldn't have been better for my hikes up Snowdon, being just opposite the entrance to Llanberis footpath. The room was ideal with twin beds and a large 50-inch LG TV. However, the dining experience left something to be desired, with limited options available. The staff, though, were extremely helpful and attentive throughout my stay.
I recently stayed at the hotel with a group of friends. The rooms, while a bit dated, overlooked a grassy area and were screened by trees, offering some privacy. However, considering the price of £150 for one night, I found the room a bit small for our group.
My stay at the hotel was lovely overall. The rooms were clean and cozy, although we did experience some issues with noise. The service was attentive, but I had a bit of trouble booking a cream tea. The location was superb, especially for our outdoor activities. However, the dining experience was a bit chaotic with overcooked food. Overall, it was a great place for the price we paid.
The hotel offers a lovely view of the beautiful landscape but falls short in room cleanliness and comfort. The staff is friendly and helpful, though some lack initiative. The location is fantastic for exploring the local area, while the dining experience, with varied buffet options, has its hits and misses.
